Function Keys Interactivity in Storyline Using JavaScript

I am creating simulation for a software in storyline. This simulation has function keys interactivity - F2,F3,F10,F11.

I was able to write trigger code - Jump to Slide when user presses F3 keys.

When I am publishing this project, the function keys are responding to the browser function keys. e.g. when I press F3, instead of going to slide F3, its showing browser's find feature.

I tried to do research on google and articulate forum for how to use functions for simulation its leading me JavaScript.

I understand that I need to use trigger - Excute JavaScript in Storyline.

But I don't know how to write a javascript.

I need JavaScript which will disable browsers function key e.g. F3 and if user presses F3 it should go to the next slide.

I guess I need two JavaScripts; the one which will disable browser's function key, and the other which will assign the user defined function that is go to F3 slide if user presses F3 funciton key.

I know there are tons of website which will give you javascript code. But I find it difficult execute in the Storyline.

I have created an example and uploaded the storylline file in this message.

Please help me to write the javascript in storyline.

Thanks in Advance.
